'Why wait 3 months to listen to an album if you can get it today?' Well, I know I'm in an ever-decreasing minority here, but: because that's the legal thing to do? I've always had a hard time understanding the argument 'I'm forced to steal this because I'm unable to buy it.' To me, items like CDs or computer games are luxury goods, not a right. Maybe it goes back to my teens when I'd eagerly save up my pocket money to buy the latest 12" single and be excited when something was released from one of my favourite bands... Would I like all DVDs to be region-free? For every bit of consumable content to be available world-wide at the same time? For the price of things I enjoy to be lowered? Absolutely! But, for better or worse, that's not how the world is at the moment. I guess I'm just one of those crazies who accepts that and tries to live within the current rules.
